sheesh fella you already started one stoush. General Discussion/Shooting the breeze is for non-poley non-kitey non-suppy, non-surfy non-saily discussions.
You go here:

Thanks Kiteboy I love being told where to go
Yeah!! I agree with kiteboy.
Come up with a good conspiracy theory or three and we will discuss your head off.
Not being mean coolwind.
You see when kiting came to the masses, all of the intelligent, brave, and young at heart windsurfers switched over.
The other crusty old b*ggers declared themselves old dogs (no new tricks) and have been increasingly bitter about it ever since as they get older and grumpier.
You can't blame them, as kiters carry their gear in 1/4 the space, go faster, jump 15 times higher and further, set up and pack up in 1/2 the time, smell better, and are generally much cooler with the women. 
After much heated discussion both groups have mostly retreated to their own spaces and 'shooting the breeze' has generally become a neutral ground where we can all happily discuss pm33's insanity together. 
^^^^oh and you have forgot how funny kiters look. i do not wind surf or kite, yet when i head down to my local on a windy day,the only people that look like they know what they are doing and having fun are the windsurfers. They also seem to help each other out a fair bit as well.
The kite guys are getting smashed,dragged through carparks and all sorts off entertaining stacks and misfortune. Also kiters dont seem to help their fellow brothers to well i have noticed.
oh i live on the broadwater and i am still expecting some dickhead with all his nice stickers to come sailing through the air and smashing into the top floor off my house.
Finally i must say the kiters do look way cooler in the car park. Actually come to think of it,they seem to spend alot of time there
^^^so your that guy with binoculars on the 2nd story trying to check out all
the kiters bums in the carpark.............mmmmmm
and people wonder why we wear boardies over our wetties
^^^^my post was not a piss take. its what i see every time the wind starts to blow
im to busy laughing or ready to call the ambos too perve on people sitting in a carpark hanging in rubber
Any sport whose forum is such a disgrace, full of bickering rude pricks and borderline illiterate trolling 15 y/o's probably isn't doing such a good job of selling itself now.
LOL ^^^^^ Wasn't hard to get my point proven, was it coolwind, even with tongue obviously in cheek
Now, how about pm33, fellas. Seen any good chemtrails lately? 
Ha ha ha
Kiters are car park Kings...
Come to think of it, I've noticed the same.
Kiters set up then hang around, chat and if the wind is not spot on, pack up and drive home!
See the same down at Frankston MX track.
People get out blinged up bikes (complete with racing numbers like 666 or 69), do 2 laps (either the easly loop or the brave take on the MX track) then sit around smoking ciggies looking at their dirty bikes for the rest of the day.
Car park heros....
Every sport has em!
Been windsurfing since 1975, gave tea bagging a try after I stopped windsurfing for 7-8 years, was a bad trip, learnt in 2 lessons flat and discovered that I had learnt all the moves................
Kiting = cheap way of wake boarding nothing more!
Ah you guys make me laugh.....
Have windsurfer for 31 years, and kited for 10 neither sport can be mastered in a couple of days as some here would suggest, you can push yourself everytime you go out or you can mow the lawn.
Going both ways is the only way you will ever have a healthy respect for each of the sports
